I installed NT4.0 today on a new machine. When I go to the port settings in the Control Panel>Ports Com1 is set to 3F8, IRQ4 and COM2 is set to default on both. In the BIOS I have set the Serial Port settings to Auto in both instances. However when I reboot the system, I get an event message ID3 saying the settings for Com1 have been "changed by teh operator" and I go back to the control panel to see COM2 set at Default and COM1 at 3F8, IRQ4. Why does this happen?
